[ArrogantBustard]

He spoke about the people they look up to, saying: "We live in a celebrity culture and young people are often encouraged to model themselves on figures from the world of sport or entertainment.
"Having money makes it possible to be generous and to do good in the world, but on its own it is not enough to make us happy.
"Being highly skilled in some activity or profession is good but it will not satisfy us unless we aim for something greater still. It might make us famous but it will not make us happy.
“Happiness is something we all want, but one of the great tragedies in this world is that so many people never find it, because they look for it in the wrong places. The key to it is very simple – true happiness is to be found in God.”

How dare that hideous, horrible man tell children ... CHILDREN!!! ... to seek God?

"How dare that hideous, horrible man tell children ... CHILDREN!!! ... to seek God?"

I think the objections were in not practicing what he preaches. Selling celebrity pope plates and tee shirts while condeming celebrity worship is just a tad hyprocrital.
